Filling in a column based on the vale of multiple rows and columns.

Looking for a way I can fill in a column at the end of my crosstab with target values for the most recent week in the rows that correspond with that target.

 

I have a data set that originally looks like this:

 

WeekThing1Thing2Thing3Thing4Target1Target2Target3Target4
1621481014735116331932
2366373186360183257296
323870124122333190313189
4394141956519433512451
53527217288608534556

 

That I transpose and crosstab to get to this:

 

KeyName12345WoWTarget
1Thing162366238394352-10.7% 
2Thing2148377014172-48.9% 
3Thing310311249517281.1% 
4Thing414786122658835.4% 
5Target135136033319460-69.1% 
6Target216318319033585-74.6% 
7Target3319257313124345178.2% 
8Target43229618951569.8% 

 

I'm looking for a way to have the target column show the latest week in the case 5 target for each Thing.

 

So the end result would look like this (I'll have to add a % to target as well but if I can get how to bring the target over this isn't an issue):

KeyName12345WoWTarget% to Target
1Thing162366238394352-10.7%60586.7%
2Thing2148377014172-48.9%8584.7%
3Thing310311249517281.1%34549.9%
4Thing414786122658835.4%56157.1%

 

I've tried a few things but have yet to get anything that works.  I'm open to either adding it in before transposing and cross tab, but I add the keys after the cross tab to order my report render accordingly and thought it would be an easy thing to reference as out of my 59 rows/keys only 12 have targets.
